Question

Harry said to Marge, "I have a ring once owned by Marilyn Monroe. Would you like to buy it for $500?" Marge pays for the ring, but the next day a friend tells her that Harry had recently purchased the ring at a local department store. Marge enjoys wearing the ring and wears it constantly for twelve months. Finally, she goes to Harry and says, "Here is the ring you lied about. Give me my $500." Most likely Marge will:

Answer 1

Most likely Marge will not get her money back.

Step-by-step explanation:

Most likely Marge will not get her money back. This is because, despite her anger towards finding out where the ring came from she still decided to wear the ring for a certain amount of time, instead of immediately returning it. Due to taking so long to disafirm the contract between her and Harry, it is automatically taken as if she had affirmed the contract. Therefore, Harry does not have any obligation to return the $500 back to Marge.
